Back in the day every car came with a coax cable leading from the back of the radio to the antenna mounted on the fender.
Since you have said antenna on the fender, it makes sense you have a coax plugged into the radio too.
After looking at parts on the Mopar website, here's what you should be looking for. This is the antenna cable going from the back of the radio to the fender.

No idea how easy the back of the radio is to get to; on older model cars you could usually reach up from under the dash, but you might have to take some kind of panel off to get to it. Anyway, there appear to be two antenna plugs on the back of your radio; I don't know which one it goes into, but you mentioned satellite radio so I suspect one is for the over-the-air radio and the other is for satellite radio. Look for the two circular plugs on the right hand side, one above the other; that's where the antenna should be plugged into.

The guy who talked about plugging in another antenna obviously had another one to try for whatever reason; it might be worth splurging five bucks to try a different antenna; Amazon has one that would work for that much.

Honestly, it doesn't sound like a radio issue to me; everything you've said seems to point to the antenna as the problem. I kind of have to agree with the oil change guy that it's unlikely anything they did would have caused the problem; there's just not any real overlap between your car's radio and changing the oil, so I'd give them a break if it was me.
